The JEWEL COLLECTION of Eva Moosbrugger is outstanding for it’s contemporary spirit and timeless beauty.
In heavy, massively blown glass objects with subtle colours, the sculptress makes light dance. Ingenious surface textures tempt the viewer to touch and give the sculptures their characteristic haptic appeal. She works in cycles, following an idea, or a conception, or an allegorical reference, and uses different approaches to create a range of related objects. One of her recurrent themes is Nature, though the way she depicts it is through abstraction, or the radical reduction of the idea.
